We have DirectTV. Had the Travler automatic dish installed on top of the fiver. The plus side: it works very well and we get all the HD channels, it finds the signals within a couple minutes of pushing the button while setting up. The negative side: it will only work with Direct. We have not received any upgrade offers from Direct for 3 years and are not satisfied with our old DVR equipment. We called them and they will upgrade us for $400. We would switch to Dish Network in a second but the Travler dish mounted on the roof, that cost about $1,800 installed, will only work with Direct.
